Heyy guys, I want to build a liquid cooling setup for my system. I have picked out the parts for the pump/reservoir combo, the gpu block, cpu block, etc
The place where I need help is the tubing, I want to go full metal tubing, and I have read that copper is the most common metal used. I have been trying to get info on using other metals for tubing and details on how to cut/bend the tubes, but I have been limited in my info, any additional help that you guys can spare would be useful.
Also, I need help regarding the fittings. For instance, if using copper tubing, how would i go about using the compression fittings?? Do I simply use them like any other tubing, or do I need to do some mods for that??
One more thing that I am concerned about regarding copper tubing is the electrical conductance, do I need to pay special attention in grounding my system??
UPDATE - I would appreciate any help regarding the case I should get, right now I using a very basic silverstone ps05, I doubt this case is going to be able to hold out on the loads of upgrades coming its way, I was hoping to get nzxt source 530 or something on those lines, but I am torn between source 530 and corsair 600t
One more spot where I need some help is to maximize metal in my comp (I am kind of a metal fanatic) so, can you suggest any radiators/pumps that are available in metal (or something that I can put myself together)
